The results of a study designed to detect the perception and usage habits developed by university students with regard to AI are presented. The picture that emerges is that of a level of usage penetration close to 100 per cent, heavily used in learning processes, mainly on personal initiative. Learning in the use of AI-based applications and the pe...
In this contribution, after a brief analysis of the critical issues associated with learning ecosystem evaluation frameworks, a participatory evaluation approach is proposed that aims to: (a) be people-centered and bring out the perceptions of all categories involved in educational processes – with particular reference to students, teachers and par...
At a historical juncture where AIs have become a ‘must’ in every form of communication and every form of activity, we have explored the perception that the actors of the educational processes – students, teachers, principals, and parents – have about the bouquet of technologies that are included in the definition of AI. Despite the discussions that...
The aim of this article is to provide designers of future smart learning ecosystems with a cultural framework of reference, and a set of inspirational principles consistent with it, that can act as stimulus and guide. The framework is introduced by a critical analysis of the evolution that educational spaces have undergone in recent centuries in fu...

The community pact is a tool potentially capable of fostering the development of learning ecosystems and communities with a variable territorial size (from an urban district to a city or a region). The realisation of such potential is, however, subjected to an adequate understanding of the boundary conditions, investigated in this paper through a p...
In this article we discuss how the school factory model that has inspired the design of learning spaces and processes for over two centuries can be overcome thanks to smart people-centred learning ecosystems, in which the smartness of the places is associated with a framework that aims at the achievement of the well-being of the student and, more g...

This chapter illustrates the relevance that smart learning ecosystems can assume in the education of smart citizens, considered as indispensable agents of the development of the smartness of the cities. Starting from the description of an alternative model of smart city—i.e., a people-centered one in which the smartness of the city and the citizens...
One year after the outbreak of the pandemic that provoked a forced and massive adoption of technology enhanced learning practices, followed by a continuous evolution of their delivery modalities (on-line learning, blended learning, parallel blended learning, hybrid learning) and, finally, by a strong commitment to come back to a “new normal”, we ha...
This paper presents an exploratory study on the reaction of the Iraqi university ecosystem to the Covid-19 pandemics, a learning ecosystem with no consolidated tradition in distance learning operating in a country where connectivity is granted mainly by a mobile phone infrastructure. The study analyses data collected from questionnaires filled in b...
Two years after the shock undergone by the Italian school ecosystem-due to the lock-down imposed by the Covid-19 at beginning of March 2020-the effects generated by the resulting fully digital immersion have been investigated by a survey administered to a representative sample of school teachers and principals. The analysis of the outcomes, togethe...
This article describes and discusses the conditions under which starting from the Italian school system it would be possible to develop smart learning ecosystems. In particular, we focus on the so-called community pact-an opportunity recently introduced and promoted by the Ministry of Education-and on how dedicated technologies may support it. Star...
This article deals with the design for well-being in large techno ecosystems, like smart cities and smart learning ecosystems, taken here as examples. Starting from a people/human-centered vision of such ecosystems and the identification of their smartness with the ASLERD pyramids of needs, the relationships of this latter with the well-being and t...
After a forced mass adopton of technology enhanced learning practices, we have assisted to a continuous evolution of their delivery modalities (on-line learning, blended learning, parallel blended learning) and, finally, to a strong commitment by rulers to come back into the classroom.

The identification of a set of competences and skills useful to sustain the development of smart cities and, before all, to operate and live as smart citizens must necessarily start from the definition of a model of smart city that, in our opinion, has to be people centered. Once that the operational context has been defined, it is also necessary t...
During the last year students have been exposed to a continuous evolution of the learning processes (fully on-line, blended, parallel-blended, rotation of the face-to-face activities, etc.) and often to many different technologies, with only one common denominator: the use of on-line activities. Despite the peculiarity of the pandemic situation, on...
The pandemic outbreak has almost cancelled for a long period the possibil-ity to use laboratories to carry on didactic activities, including those fore-seen for the alternation schemes. In this paper we report on an experience carried on in a vocational school of informatics. The alternation scheme conducted in "smart working" has been based on a d...

Since three years the Italian Ministry of Education (MIUR) has introduced a massive alternance scheme, completely new to Europe, whose implementation still shows several critical issues and requires a special effort by all potential players - schools, associations, enterprises, local communities, etc. - to design and experiment models and strategie...
This article describes the recent introduction of a massive alternance scheme in the Italian schools by means of the so called “Buona scuola” (good school) law. In this article, the authors report on a) the outcomes of a survey carried out on a large sample of high school students attending schools located in the South-East area of Rome; b) a compa...
In the recent past it has been shown that participatory evaluation constitutes an al-ternative approach to traditional benchmarking of learning ecosystems capable to provide an insight on the smartness of universities and schools. Such alternative approach has also been shown capable to make emerge problems and desiderata from the opinions of all p...
This work presents the adaptation of the participatory approach used in the past to evaluate campuses' smartness to the case of K12 and High schools. The adaptation has been implemented taking into consideration both the universalities represented by the principles that have inspired the approach (i.e. satisfaction of needs described by the Maslow'...

The increasing smartness of cities and territories is driving the change of all aspects of learning: places, processes, approaches and methods, contents, roles and skills. The grand challenge (GC) is to develop an adequate governance of such transformation and through learning disseminate a “person in place centered” perspective to inspire the desi...
A new method to perform a bottom-up extraction and benchmark of the perceived multilevel smartness of complex ecosystems has been recently described and applied to territories and learning ecosystems like university campuses and schools. In this paper we study the resilience of our method by comparing and integrating the data collected in several E...

The ana...
This study introduces the reader to a “people centered” and multidimensional definition of the “smartness” of an ecosystem and to its bottom-up detection, that here has been specialized to the case of a learning ecosystem: a university campus. The methodology developed and validated by a European consortium composed by members of the ASLERD – Assoc...
In this paper we report on a first investigation aimed at identifying possible differences in the perception of the campus' smartness among the players-bachelor students, master students and professors-that animate learning processes and campus' life at University of Aveiro. The detected differences, as discussed in the body of the paper, can be as...
Each year a considerable amount of money is spent in the production of several national and international University rankings that may deeply influence the students’ enrollment. However, all such rankings are based almost exclusively on numerical indicators weakly related to the quality of the learning process and do not consider the perceptions of...
Urban environments are composed by cities and citizens but presently benchmarking approaches - even the
standardized ones - consider only the first of these two components and identify the smartness of a city with the
efficacy and the effectiveness of infrastructures and processes to optimize consumptions and productive chains. Beyond the statistic...

This contribution aims at fostering a collaborative effort by relevant stakeholders - policy makers, entrepreneurs, researchers, teachers, students, etc. – to critically explore the role of ICT in supporting a participatory development of people-centered "smart" learning ecosystems, able to produce social capital a...
Today's "Smart Cities" (SCs) models promise to preserve and improve the soci-ety’s well-being (Lee, Han, Leem, & Yigitcanlar, 2008; Giffinger & Gudrun, 2010). Most models adopt top-down functionalist approaches, aimed at optimizing the con-sumption of primary resources (energy, water, materials, food, and time through the optimization of people-, g...

In the future smarter territories are expected to induce transformations of many aspects of the learning processes, but how their smartness is and will be related to that of the learning ecosystems ? In this paper, by means of Principal Component Analysis, we critically analyse methods presently used to benchmark and produce University rankings, by...
In this paper we provide a framework useful to define and measure the perceived "smartness" of learning eco-systems of any kind and, more in general, of cities and territories. The proposed framework, inspired by Maslow's pyramid of needs [18] and by the “flow” concept [6] helps to integrate bottom-up approaches and top-down ones and to develop a m...
In this paper we describe a process of participatory grading that have been modified by the introduction of a "trust" parameter to account for the confidence that students have in their peers and, as well, for their diligence and ability in evaluating and self-evaluating. Lights, shadows and lesson learned from the
outcomes are presented and discus...
In accordance with a 'people centred' vision, this paper critically examines current approaches to smart cities benchmarking. In particular, by means of correlation analysis and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) we put in evidence present limitations of city rankings and, as well, the emergence of different perspectives for data interpretations. T...
Smart Territory Analytics is a very young domain that by a great number of people is expected to support benchmarking of cities’ and territories’ smartness. Analytics, however, is first of all, a route toward awareness but the question is: about what? In other words what does smartness mean? Here, as an example of “wisdom of the
crowd” extraction,...
This article proposes to identify the smartness of a learning eco-system - physical and/or virtual - with its attractiveness that, in a people in place centered perspective, can be put in relation with the ability of the eco-system to meet needs and expectations of all categories of actors taking part in a given learning process and, finally, with...
The increasing smarteness of personal devices and territories are rapidly changing the scenarios of data production. Data access and/or data possession can determine positions of privilege, but the real competitive advantage will derive more and more from the ability to identify relevant dimensions and flows and, of course, from that to extract mea...
This article presents the results of a design workshop that developed scenarios of learning in an imaginary "smart city": Villard-de-Lans (Vercors, French Alps) by exploring suitable methodological approaches to the Smart City Learning Design. The aim of this case study was to propose "glocal" solutions intended to balance the global trends and the...
We present a study on the use of the Microsoft Kinect (Kinect) to implement interactive urban environments that integrate smart tourism and smart learning.

Analyzing student performance indicators has been a long-standing research direction, nowadays demanding for new multidimensional approaches tailored to the recent advent of Web 2.0 in education. This paper investigates two such potential learning performance indicators: i) students' active involvement with the Web 2.0 tools and ii) students' learn...
This work is intended to foster a “quantum leap” in the reflection on learning in smart cities/territories. We try to move from a vision according to which education is identified with “infrastructures and services” needed to sustain the smart city “organism” (due also to the social capital that it may produce) toward a “new” vision that recovers t...

By going to the root of complexity I show that it can be simplified only if apparent. The true complexity - arising from the peculiarities of the laws governing the interaction among n components of a 'natural' system and, as well, from the 'topology' of the latter - requires to deeply re-think the approach to the design: operative framework, expec...
This article presents the first attempt to investigate the existence of possible quantitative correlations among the physical characteristics of emotional portrayals and the emotions perceived by humans during their listening. Our aim was: a) to design and develop a new investigation protocol; b) to obtain information useful to recognition and synt...
The cities, despite the huge size reached by some and the problems by which they are sometimes afflicted, continue to attract people and pose epochal sustainability challenges to which policy makers and planners have decided to respond with a top-down functionalist approach aiming at transforming the cities in "smart cities". The purpose of this pa...
Nowadays collaborative educational processes require the use of increasingly sophisticated analytical tools to help teachers, tutors and students to identify, at best, emergent behaviors. In this paper we describe the use of a module that has been designed and developed to perform Principal Component Analysis as internal facility of the on-line lea...
The tutorial aims at getting auditors acquainted with an application, and an equivalent open web-service, that allow straightforwardly to create, administer and analyze tests designed to measure the emotions conveyed by multi-channel and single channel media signals/stimuli (text, pictures, voice, music and sounds, video, etc.).
This article describes a study, lasted three academic years, aiming to detect modifications of learning styles (LS) over the time. LS measurements have been performed according to the Felder-Silverman's learning styles model (FSLSM) and measuring tool (ILS questionnaire). Experimental results show that individual LS measured after one or two year/s...
Event-related potential (ERP) studies are very specialized ones that can be used only to investigate specific problems to get a different perspective with respect to more traditional measurements techniques. The peculiarity of ERP measures (time windows, repetitions, etc.) requires a careful design of the experimental protocol to obtain meaningful...
In this article we present a scenario describing a possible transformation of the places in charge to preserve our Cultural Heritage and to support our learning from the past: the museums. In a not-so-far future, we may assist to the opening of the museum-boxes, that blossomed and transformed in "museal fields", will spread into the territory in or...
In this paper we describe a new interactive musical instrument, TaTi-Conga, aimed at introducing children to music, according to an active pedagogical approach: an electronic lighting percussion allowing to get in contact with and explore, by playing, all basic elements of music - rhythm, melody, harmony.
